Fuel can freakout - rant, possibly humorous

Has anyone tried these:

I too hate the gas cans that the envirofreaks have made that cause more spills. Hey, at least we're not letting the fumes get in the air, just spilling it all over the place.

We have one of those (without the funky plastic hose thing on the tip), it is ok if you cut off the "Lock" that you have to slide over to open the valve.

Years ago, one of our buddies had one of these

He used it when we went ATV riding. We gave him a REALLY hard time about "oooo, look, he's a Pro rider, got the fancy fuel can and all...." About a year ago, another buddy picked one up (ironically, this other buddy was the one that really rode the first one hard). Any, I proceeded to tease the next buddy. Then he said, "Here, you try it...." I hefted it up and tipped it over......yeah, it was ok.......then he flipped open the air vent, just like the good ole' cans had.....I swear that thing emptied in just a few seconds. Yes, they are bit expensive but I'm a believer, now. The cap has a place that you can thread a barbed fitting in to and then put on a pc. of long hose....put another barbed fitting on it and then you can thread on a little cap.....

they can be bought, sometimes, cheaper at a local power sports place or with a bit of searching on the net.....
